Extra File...

[spooger~]

What, where, who is this extra invisible file in my shared folder? I have 7 files in there but on the bottom of the Kazaa screen it says I&#39;m sharing 8. It&#39;s not a hidden file or a temp file as far as I can tell. Avast, Nod32, Spybot S&D, Ad-aware and various trojan hunters can&#39;t find anything. Uninstall - reinstall....no help. What the hell?...Anyone? <_<

Using the default port?

Click here (http://127.0.0.1:1214)

Not using the default port? Copy 127.0.0.1 into your browser and add : followed by the port onto the end, e.g. 127.0.0.1:12345 for port 12345 :)

Go into your shared folder, go to Tools>folder options. Then check the box which says "do not cache thumbnails". Uncheck "hide protected operating system files" and you should see the thumbs.db file :)

what exactly does the thumbs file do? is it needed for any programs (ie. acdsee, windows viewer, etc.)?
